WHAT: Six-year-old Devin Suau, a little boy who has always wanted to be a police officer, was diagnosed with an inoperable cancerous brain tumor, DIPG. In response to his diagnosis, his parents created the hashtag #WhyNotDevin to raise awareness in hopes that Devin will be the first to survive this disease. The hashtag has since gone viral in support of this young man. Today, Devin will kick off the South Boston St. Patrick's Day Parade with his uncle, Boston Police Officer Justin Cremmins.
